Construct's Casting
New Materials for Tools and Armor
Arcanium
A special alloy created from arcane ingots, used for crafting tools and armor. The main feature of this material is its unique trait that increases maximum mana by 25 units per level.
Exilite
A metallic alloy created from iron, arcane essence, and lava. This material is ideal for creating anti-magic builds due to its special characteristics:
- Anti-Magic: Conditional damage trait that adds +2 damage per level against magic-wielding creatures
- Spell Protection: Provides protection against damage inflicted by spells. Also available as a standalone protection modifier
Magical Abilities
Casting
An ability that allows Tinkers' Construct staffs to cast spells from Iron's Spells 'n' Spellbooks with a right-click.
Swiftcasting
An enhanced version of the casting ability that removes the speed penalty when casting spells.
Rune Creation
Adds recipes for creating elemental runes using Tinkers' Construct mechanics. Runes are created by applying the appropriate essence to a blank rune.
Essences are created by alloying arcane essence with other fluids:
- Blazing Blood → Fire Essence
- Powdered Snow → Ice Essence
- Liquid Lightning (obtained from Bottles o' Lightning) → Lightning Essence
- Molten Ender → Ender Essence
- Liquid Divinity (alloyed from gold and amethyst) → Holy Essence
- Meat Soup → Blood Essence
- Molten Emerald → Evocation Essence
- Poisonous Potato Stew (melted from poisonous potatoes) → Nature Essence
This method is generally more economical, requiring fewer elemental resources but more Arcane Essence.
Ink Making
Ink can be created by melting down scrolls of appropriate rarity or by alloying lower-tier inks.
